Theresa May's Genius for Dumb Decisions

As we pointed out at the time, Theresa May blew the Hinckley Point C nuke power plant decision, giving the go-ahead to a project that will see British households paying Chinese investors twice as much for nuclear power as they would have otherwise paid for power from a natural-gas fired generator, while creating an existential risk to the population down-wind of the plant, i.e., the people of Bristol, Oxford and London.

Was that dumb, criminal, insane, or what?
Then she blew the snap Brexit election, running the worst campaign in living memory based on the advice of her own hand-picked advisers.
